Thanks again guys.
I meant to to a baseline "before" run on the 1/4 mile but never got around to it due to wiped out stock cam lobe. (That's how I got the car, plus a chunk missing from one piston... but it ran) It would have been pointless. The engine is getting close to being done. Need the lumps done and studs and push rods, little bits and pieces like that.
This car will likely never see a track, it's just a weekend cruiser, 4 door grandma car.
My Gtech is 6000-7000 miles away. Not even sure where, probably in the same box with a Crane CDI box
And yea, if I spent money or time on a mod, damn right its gotta be faster
Just like louder exhaust makes it go faster. And Moon eyes/thrush woodpecker stickers are worth 10hp each.
Edit: radiused sharp edges, blended seats, light port work (no polish, surface cleanup, coned guide bosses) unshrouded the valves but kept the tub well defined and close to original, deep and narrow with plenty of quench plane), gasket match (head, intake, exhaust)
